Language Resources (National Resource Center for Asian Languages)

NRCAL (National Resource Center for Asian Languages at Cal State Fullerton) curates Vietnamese leveled readers for children and heritage learners who want more reading practice than a textbook provides.

You get short, kid friendly texts meant to support step by step literacy growth. This is best if your goal is reading fluency and vocabulary through lots of simple stories, especially for families who want Vietnamese reading at home or teachers who need classroom material.

What it does not do is teach speaking or pronunciation, and it is not a full course with lessons and quizzes. If you want structured instruction, pair these readers with a class or curriculum, then use the readers for regular, low pressure reading practice. Start from the easiest level and reread often.
